Three little words...

They may be just three more words in the dictionary, but they really decide how we live every day of our lives.

Last night, as I was falling asleep, I was thinking about what I might want to write in my blog today. I was reading an article on WikiHow about how to write a good blog article, and it said to basically write deep, and to start with something to capture the readers attention. I couldn't come up with anything really deep, so the first line is my best try so far.

Anyways, the words. The first one is hate. Merriam Webster defines it as intense hostility and aversion usually deriving from fear, anger, or sense of injury and extreme dislike or antipathy. This is my first word because it has driven so much of our world, and it has such an intense emotional background to it. Using an example that we've been covering in school, Napoleon hated Great Britain, and therefore started many battles with them. This hate caused hundreds of thousands of people to die. When we say things like, "I hate this class", or "I hate this", we typically aren't doing the word justice.

If you've ever said "I hate you" to someone, and really meant it, that should really have shocked the person. I've said it about 3 times in my life, when I've felt extreme anger against someone (mainly my parents). Immediately afterwards, with a bit of reflection, I realized that I really couldn't hate my parents. It was just pointless. There are many reasons why hate is one of my three strongest words, so I'm not going to write them all.

And since I'm running out of time in this spare I have, I'm going to have to make you wait for the other 2 words in the coming days.
